Terms

undefined, object
copy deck
study of blood flow
hemodynamics
volume moving at a particular time
flow
speed of a fluid moving from one location to another
velocity
units for velocity
distance/time
3 forms of flow
pulsatile
phasic
3 forms of flow:
pulsatile
phasic
constant speed
venous(holding breath)
steady flow
variable velocitie
heart causes it
pulsatile
variable velocities
respirations change it


phasic
normal phasic respiration
5 breaths/minute
layers of bld. flow parallel to each other but at individual speeds

found in normal states

laminar flow
2 forms of laminar flow
plug
parabolic
all travel at the same speed (found at entrance to vessel) *type of laminar flow*
plug
bullet profile, fastest in center, slowest at vessel wall(normal vessel)
parabolic
chaotic flow pattern, many speeds and directions
turbulent flow
cardiovascular path causes ___flow
turbulent flow
turbulent flow is seen ____to stenosis
distal
____are like a hurricane pattern
eddy currents
heard with a stethoscope
murmur or bruit
felt with fingertips, palp murmur
thrill
causes blood to flow
energy gradient
the difference in fluid energy from one end to another
energy gradient
Total energy= _____
kinetic pressure gravitational
energy in motion
kinetic
2 determining factors of kinetic energy
speed it moves
objects mass
form of stored or potential energy; has ability to perform work; used to overcome resistance in circulation
pressure energy
form of stored or potential energy; deals with elevated objects;
gravitational energy
types of energy losses
viscous, frictional, inertial
thickness of fluid
viscosity
measured in poise
viscous loss
% of rbcs in blood
hematocrit
flow energy is converted to heat
frictional energy loss
tendency of a fluid to resist changes iin its velocity (how fast)
inertial energy loss
lose energy if speeding up or slowing down
inertial energy loss
3 events that cause inertial energy loss
pulsatile flow
phasic flow
3 events that cause inertial energy loss:
pulsatile
phasic
stenosis

-where vessel narrows
-changes flow in and ot of narrowing
-highest velocity found at tightest narrowing

stenosis
turbulent flow
post stenosis
pressure downstream is ____than upstream
lower
pulsatile flow turns to ___ in stenosis
steady flow
In stenosis, pressure downstream is ____than upstream
lower
pressure gradient =
flow x resistance
flow increases if pressure gradient ___ or resistance ____
increases; decreases
flow =
pressure grad/ resistance
ohms law=
voltage= current x resistance
venous hemodynamics
normal shape of vein is ___
flattened or hourglass
veins are ____, have ____walls, and have ____resistance
collapsible, thin, low
veins do what when excersising?
dilate to rounded shape
pressure that expands veins
transmural pressure
pressure in relation to heart, whether above or below, of blood pressing on vessel at that location
hydrostatic pressure
unit for hydrostatic pressure
mmHg
hydrostatic pressure when supine:
0
above heart at head when standing:
-30
mid chest standing
0
total measured pressure=
circulatory pressure +hydrostatic pressure
